MISSION OF THE DUTY
In World War II, the average of age of a soldier…
… of combat, it was 26 years. In the Vietnam it was of 19 years.
Is reading this letter for some competition, Danny?
It is not of my fiancé. Or at least it was.
It is not great thing. Not? the queen of the roundup.
She is, some men must be for there now, I can guarantee.
She leaves it in peace Hazzard, OK? Some people have feelings.
She is, I find that it is not very good with women, is not Ruiz?
She has waiting me to a girl, yes. We go in them to marry when I to come back.
It will be a great marriage and we will have many children.
She is, just what we need, is more Puerto Rican.
E as goes to keep all these children? stealing cars?
I have a cousin that he writes music.
Parsley, Rock and Roll, for the Bronx and in the coast of Jersey.
I go to work for it. Rock and Roll…
… In the coast of Jersey, that good!
Gives a time, Danny to me? Yes.
It has that to have vision of rays X to enxergar this night here.
As the such super-face.
We had to call them, that they come and they follow in them in the party.
e that, comes to the party.
They know, what more I go to remember this place? I smell it is it.
I smell of Napalm.
I smell of the burnt meat.
It does not have nothing equal to this.
When it was in the Body of training of Officers…
… it adored my uniform.
Now she is, as if it nor wanted to write.
I thus do not know, I have blood in the hands or something.
Rodeo, Winnet, were I knew where it.
It was the thing prettier than already she had seen.
It was love to the first sight.
They hear!
They hear, has a movement in the fencing!
It has movement in the fencing!
It uses an antipersonnel mine.
Doctor! doctor!
Percell, we go!
Good, they had as soon as left the forest.
The explosives were grudados by all the body.
Mines in its proper body?
It is, are sappers.
These faces pass the fencing as a needle passes the screen.
I myself, I do not believe in ghosts, this is certain.
It could have been worse, of this time, we had luck.
The question is: Which is the force of the Charlie?
This is new an offensive one, then we will have that to assure the bridges.
Accepted a palpite Sir? Anderson speaks.
It has been a long night for all.
Accurately my point, gentleman.
We are all depleted.
The men are deceased, and need to rest.
I go to make sure itself in saying the battalion, Sergeant.
While you, are with the squad.
E will watch the bridges for the engineers.
Revistem the bodies embed and them.
They see if of this time take care of of all the bodies, OK well?
This age the Ercolani?
He was just-married when coming here.
It is Percell well, has that to follow.
Of the opposite this to consume goes you.
Percell.

That devils makes here?
Hospital of emergency in Chu-lai.
Just I was transferred.
We go Lieutenant, we go to leave daqui!

One instant, one instant. To find I tried you, but I could not.
I cannot believe! How I speak with you?
Good, my telephone rose color does not function.
But find it can me in the hospital, OK?
OK.
The VC had crossed the fire and the death.
We will also cross and disappear.
E these rice dealers follow fidiciary offices behind this dull influence.
E how many wars had had before arriving here?
For they are only plus one day.
Each one of these VC, are laughing at us.
If somebody is laughing, is good nor to bind.
Then it goes to gain the war alone, Percell.
I did not come here to lose no war, friend.
Then, so that he came? To be a hero?
He leaves it in peace, Hazzard.
Before somebody hears of that side is.
Brave 6, here Brave 2-6, exchange.
Here Brave 6, continue.
Six, we reach the objective eagle.
Chemical preparation protection for the engineers, exchange.
Very well, 2-6, uses the team sweep-mines to clean the way…
… and the bridge, before they cross the trucks, exchange.
2-6, exchange and I disconnect.
To sweep the bridge, to search vestige, and to wait that Victor is resting.
It would be well if one of us was resting.
It is, we would be well.
Lieutenant. Yes?
I could perceive in its eyes, has somebody in particular here?
It is not of its account, Sergeant.
Already I understood.
Very well, people!
Sixth floor, Langerie for ladies.
They can prove, but they cannot lead for house.
We go! they go, they go, they go! They are moved, are moved!
How it is, Percell? Well, Sergeant.
Good bye received letter from the fiancé saying.
Ercolani comes back in a plastic stock market, and all arrebentado.
It is disturbing it to Hazzard? Hazzard is disturbing to all.
Hazzard goes to be in the list of extinct species, if not to take care of itself.
Good, it was not enlisted in the soccer league, we have what we can.
It wants to say that me to me realistei for this, lieutenant?
I have men walking sleeping because they do not sleep to the two days.
Edmunds, you if realistou for the same that I.
Because it does not have place where to go.
Not., I realistei because later that I came back…
… it was in a station of bus in Oakland…
… of uniform, fascinating to all…
… and I received an advice from an old vagabond.
It said, Clyde, better to come back toward war, son.
Because its mother to receive does not go you as well as is.
They hear, I find that the ARVN were watching this bridge.
Certainly they had been to the village to take a coffee.
This novice still goes to make with they kill that me.
Some problem here?
It is with some problem, Percell? Not, Sergeant.
If it has something to say, would like to hear.
It is this, must have called Westmoreland this morning.
For the time being, it would be thankful if they gave attention in what they make.
How they follow the trucks!
They stop the truck! They stop the truck!
They stop the truck!
That devils?
They stop the truck!
Brave 6, here Brave 2-6! Exchange!
Here 2-6, necessary one of immediate assistance, I have wounded people!
Detonated mine in the distance.
The idiots must have waited that we finished the cleanness.
Probably they had been in that village that is after the arvoredos.
God!
Very well, this can be dangerous. They have the open eyes.
Alpha team, if puts in charge.
They go, go!
They stop to shoot.
A boy.
Beautiful Percell shot, killed a boy.
Better to go, Percell, cannot give account of each gone off bullet.
I did not come here to kill boys.
Percell, looks at, all this village could be VC, for what we know.
We do not know who detonated this mine, can have been the boy.
E can not have been!
Sergeant, it also has another sick son.
It is not well.
Very doctor makes well what he will be able for the baby.
We go to leave daqui.
We go to leave daqui, now.
I feel.
I feel, I feel exactly.
He was without intention what he happened.
He pardons me priest, because I am pecador.
Already much time was transferred, since mine finishes confession.
It continues.
I, am not good with this.
He does not need to be. He only speaks with its heart.
Priest, I killed a child.
One garotinho.
It was intentional? Not, not!
God, not!
I say, I pulled the trigger, but I thought that he was a man, one VC.
Sir, we are here for watching the bridge.
E I do not know, only happened.
I can hear its confession, acquit and you of the sins.
but all we make optimum that we can.
I find that I am confused for many things.
All we are searching answers.
It is, it is, I find that I am searching answers.
Answers what we are making in a Country forgotten for God.
What we are making here?
Son, I am here to give advice to you to support and you.
But, the times I am so confused as it is now.
You know that I do not want that she goes.
I know, I I know.
Then, he does not go.
If not to arrive the Travis in the hour, I will lose my airplane.
Then loss it.
It gives a skill to lose it.
You do not surrender, certain?
Not, never, never.
He does not want that I go the Martial Cut before finishing the first mission?
Or he wants? I am thinking, thinking.
Good, it does not think.
It wants to know a thing? appositive…
… that when to arrive the orders we will be in the same place.
Or perhaps not.
Perhaps let us not see in them of new.
Well, I will find then it.
I promise. Without, promises.
It does not have nothing that I hate more than a false promise.
I speak serious. I know.
It is a great world it are there.
E we find in them, and was something important.
But, if not, the time that we pass together, already is most important.
It is.
Lieutenant?
What it is, Percell?
I spoke with the doctor, on the baby of the village of today.
It is, had a baby in the village. What had with it? It counts, Percell.
The baby was sick, Sir. Very sick, and he needs aid.
Percell, all has sick people in this cursed Country.
We have that to live with this. It must have some form…
I want to say, we have that to lead, it helps this family.
The ARVN already had taken the bridge.
We do not go to come back unless they command in them.
Lieutenant… Percell, hears, only hears.
Because they say me to all to hear?
If it could only hear a time, devils, would hear! it does not find?
Doctor, saw the Percell?
Yes, this morning. It was worried about the baby.
Is so sick this baby? It was well badly.
Dehydrated, full of injuries. It can make something?
I injected antibiotics for the secondary infections.
But, I do not know if it helped.
The one that if it relates?
Many of this people never turn a soap.
E the water that uses is contaminated with dejections of human beings and animals.
Then unless they are cleaned, it will continue infectado, certain?
E God knows more what.
Debtor.
I am looking the Percell.
It decided to use the passes that were keeping.
All did not sleep the night.
Nightmares? Not, with the white of snow and the 7 dwarves.
It went to have a meeting with a bottle, is alone what I can say.
Lieutenant, we go to give a return? Yes.
Lieutenant, as much Johnson as Percell, the best ones are welded that we have.
But this war leaves the young, old very quickly.
A beautiful drunkness, I can understand.
I want to say, to disencumber itself, especially for the circumstances.
The circumstances do not go to improve, do not matter how much whiskey drinks.
What it wants to say, that Percell is being wild with this?
Lieutenant, if somebody goes to go crazy, finds that I am the first one of the line.
but yes, Percell is below of its mental function.
e we must give more attention.
it is, if it wants a good soldier in return, then we must give more attention.
then, we go to find it.
It must be playing, this place does not have restrictions?
Not, not, we only must leave daqui before it becomes gloomy.
Suck, I am looking one of my troop.
Not here. Not problems.
It will not have no problem. Unless it wants to have them.
How he is fininho, is well?
Well, as it is going, Percell?
I am excellent. Very well.
We will take it, welded. It catches its things.
Ei, is losing time, Lieutenant.
I cannot come back. E why, Percell?
Ei, I go to be married, as it calls exactly?
Brenda. Bren-da.
I fear that I cannot leave to make this, Percell.
Oh, Sergeant, that is this?
Only because I go to marry it.
It is of last week, right? Except that its name was Daphne.
Daphne. Soldier wants sex?
He sees what I say, Percell? The women are rare creatures.
Not, not, Sergeant, will see. To this it waits me girl in house.
It is not very intelligent.
The university of Missoula goes. To march for the peace.
It looks at, Percell, all has its opinion.
, The subject is that in its small moon of honey…
… she will be full of VC when to become gloomy.
It finds that we are murderous of children.
Devils, I find that I finish to prove.
This is a war, people dies, also boys, does not have guilt.
She is as the child in who I shot.
e this baby that we leave, in the village so that it dies.
Good, Percell, goes to leave the bed or will have that to take it in the coasts?
Sergeant, Sergeant listen to, me.
It knows, of. truth I want that he is friend with Brenda here.
Very well, Percel, I go to be your friend, I promise.
God, as much how much we came to the world…
… I will take it the Missoula I myself, and we will find its queen of the roundup.
e I will say the soldier to it who is.
Not, not, curse. Not Now!
Now, I want now that he is my friend!
Percell, is acting as idiotic.
Percell, if thus insists.
Cursed vandals.
It saw what I spoke?
Oh, God!
I find that I broke the hand.
Now it puts the shoes of Ho Chi Minh and we go to leave daqui.
Ei, Sergeant, take another sip.
Percell, goes to have more problems of what it is asking for.
Thanks a lot.
They form it the side of the road and are prepared to advance.
While we are in the outskirts I find that we had to revistar the village.
This is the zone that I find, must clean.
The captain knows of this? I thought that we only…
Sergeant, already we find VC here.
It wants to bet we will find that them of new?
I never promised to bet with officers.
E why?
Good, for the experience, Lieutenant. Some delay to pay.
e others does not have the sufficient to pay to me.
With which it finds that I am? I can say later?
I know that he makes this for the Percell. Sergeant, I make to catch the VC.
Very well, if it says, it is said.
Then, as is felt this morning?
Pitbull.
As, Sergeant, as it is wanted to calm my suffering.
Then, because we do not leave to drink this night?
Sergeant, please, unless it wants that it vomits my coffee in its boots.
Not grateful, already I passed therefore, I made, much of this in mine 2a. mission, [00:29:05.92]
I find that I had cerebral damage.
It looks at Percell, we go to go the village.
To prepare I only want you for worse.
I want to say that the boy already can be…
Or perhaps not.
Doctor.
Suck, I do not go to hurt.
Not problem, does not have problem. Suck brought the doctor.
Doctor, Bac-Itself, Bac-Itself, yes.
Bac-Itself for nenê., Baby.
Suck, please leaves to help it.
Please.
It is well!
It is well.
It is well. Doctor, how are you?
More he is dehydrated than before.
The face, the body is swelled.
Its belly is hard.
It is well badly, Danny.
Very well, Lieutenant, as he said to it, not appositive with officers.
but, appositive that he goes to be difficult to take off information of these idiots.
You find? I do not know, Sir.
It does not have language, Lieutenant.
Unless he wants the half.
Somebody must have cut it.
It wants to see?
It prevents this, Taylor. Then, what it goes to say?
We go to kill this monkey, Right now!
Hazzard, finishes with this, right now!
Lieutenant, the captain denied assistance for the woman and its son.
He cannot authorize none. He gives this to me.
Brave 6, urgent here Brave 2-6, exchange.
Here Brave 6, exchange.
Brave 6, we have three VC here, that they can want to cooperate.
We need fast a helicopter to take S2, exchange.
Lieutenant, I only see one, not three.
Well, understood 2-6 Brave, I disconnect.
Three Horn, understood? we have three. Yes gentleman, three.
Very well, Anderson. Sir.
I want that he brings suck-san and the son.
We go to take them it the hospital of Chu Lai.
Then we will take this nastiness with people.
I want that it has taken the squad soon in return the base.
e explains everything to captain Wallace.
Yes, Sir.
Percell, comes with me escorts the prisoner.
To escort?
It does not find that I can make everything, or I can?
Not!
Goldmand lieutenant? Yes.
He brought the confidential shipment, as well as delicate.
Where they are the faces? We do not have none.
They had said in them that they were three.
Good, we had one, but the dog ate its language.
91º HOSPITAL OF EVACUATION CHU LAI
Handle, necessary of aid.
I feel, I have two trucks that they had come full of wounded.
Raines Lieutenant. Room of urgent operations?
For the dressing room to its right. We go.
He forgives, this baby is sick and needs cares.
What finds that it is this? What I can deal with all a time?
Reverse speed-it binds.
Ei, this baby is dying. These soldiers also.
Mary, a intravenosa.
Necessary doctor of its aid. I do not have time, Lieutenant.
Well, I will make same. They take the mother for it are.
At any cost I feel that it is my duty.
My mother also did not want.
My father fought in the Korea against the Communists, then, I make the same.
E Mr.? I was born for this.
Son of militating, does not have where to go its father he wants that he follows its steps.
I know I eat I am this.
After the Korea, my father was champion of roundup.
He made the way and I had whenever to surpass it.
The funny one is that before I coming here, never vi nothing to die.
except my grandmother.
In its velório they had said that it to me was not there,
that it was in better place, thus I did not have fear.
Now…
Percell, has that to be very fool not to feel fear.
but, I did not feel nothing when the Hazzard died.
It swims.
As the first time that I was to hunt with my father.
It took me and vi to kill the first hart.
e I did not feel nothing.
How it explains this?
Very the examinations had shown infection indices well.
What it means that has left of its intestine it is obstructed.
We operate it and now it is in the vital system.
It will be well? Nenê is stronger.
I cannot guarantee, but I find that it will be well.
With license.
Suck, suck-san, its baby is well.
it goes to be well.
It understands? it is well.
If he does not worry.
Not, if he does not worry.
I do not have much time, I have that to come back the base.
I finish in half hour, we will see In them in the club of the officers?
Good.
Would make me a favor, Lieutenant? What he wants, my Lieutenant.
Its deodorant must have looser to some days.
There it has a shower, in the end of the corridor.
I will make with that they give ones to you, cleaner clothes.
That impressive.
I have surgery of brain the 3:00 thus is better hurrying in them.
ones whiskys more, and its hand will be in form.
Well, lady, will have itself that to pass for what you pass…
… I find that it would have to take some of these before facing.
The times I make work without mattering what volume all the night.
The times I am one 20 or 22 continuous hours here.
There I am tired as one I buzzed and only thus I obtain to sleep.
It sees and it would have to sleep.
I feel for the deodorant.
Pass one weeks in the forest, and its body starts to smell badly.
Debtor for ducha.
It is almost so good, as to be able to see it.
Almost?
Good the problem is that here it does not have current water.
e does not make many visits in domiciliates, certain?
It would like to be more in the field?
but, this hospital base can finishes be it.
If the rumors of increase of activity NVA are certain.
We hear same the rumors that you.
I only wait that they are not certain. To entrench themselves, to recharge.
How many boys as these have there?
Sufficiently, after a time people are alone dying.
About the truth it does not think about size or color, only thinks about itself exactly.
When it was making the basic training in Houston…
… it only thought about coming to the Vietnam, and fulfilling my duty.
e me to come back something more sensible, as the pediatrics.
but, now I think about taking care of to the veterans when to leave.
Perhaps in Saint Antonio, or Dallas.
You are very masochistic.
e you is what they had said.
then, as if it has left so far?
Well, I have good notice and I have harms.
Good, I assume that the harms are the ones that are here and [00 will not go for house…:38:43.49]
… to marry and to create children.
It has somebody in mind? My cousin has this.
She has great personality, but she is fat and she uses brakes.
Puaj. Yes.
Well, the bad news are that in the battalion we have people…
… interested in reason of the deaths, instead of fighting exactly.
For each officer who gives the coasts, It has ten that they finish for you.
It is, you has reason.
The only thing that understands is to count as many bodies.
as one was cursed game.
Everything what we have is died to prove that we have reason.
I am wanting to hear the good notice, now.
Good, I had luck with my Sergeant of squad.
It is as a solitary wolf. Maluca has this quality.
It looks in its eyes. E knows to see its secrets.
It is thus? I do not know.
I find that the secret is not to be politician.
It thinks that the more American lives salute, more contributes.
E these two faces its position?
It is., all are as Percell, I have had luck.
Percell, passes badly for one moment, but, it goes to surpass.
It is with you that I am worried. Of what it speaks?
It has much confidence in what it does not know.
Oh, yes, to enter was easy and to leave will be a hell.
I felt its lack, I looked but not wise person to it where it was.
I know, I could not fix me the enough time.
He has some place that we could. I am in one double room.
To that the night in a room of operations passed all.
It would have to be resting.
To the best of my knowledge and belief I will be plus one hours.
It is? It is.
It knows, when garotinho was one…
… it only woke up in the way of the night.
scared, not for the dark one, but…
… because not wise person where she was.
Thus she is as I feel myself now.
I am in the Vietnam, but…
… the half of the time, I do not know where I am.
when…, when I killed its son.
I killed a part of me for the remaining portion of my life.
E I do not know if I will be able to surpass.
I do not obtain to place this bullet of new in my rifle…
… and nothing what it says it will erase what it was transferred.
I know that I do not have the right to ask for its pardon.
e burns me on the inside to this, is burning my stomach.
Suck, please.
necessary that it understands as I feel.
Please.
Myron, I know what it has there it are.
I see the bodies that arrive.
Boys of 18 and 19 years that cry because never they will arrive to be men.
The times I find that God is playing with us.
Well, it has a sensible stranger of mood, not?
I find that he is wanting to say something to me?
He knows, when it was the Travis, he wanted to prove that a good one was welded.
A good officer. he wanted to prove its father, certain?
Now not, he knows what? I am a good soldier.
e I am learning to be a good officer.
I know who I am. E knows where goes?
Yes.
I go direct to the hell. It wants to come?
Oh! yes.
Until more.
It is smoking excessively, Danny, wise person?
It is I know, I am renouncing the women the alcohol, and the sex for my Country.
I will be condemned if it will not have a vice.
As soon as this afternoon to finish. I will put in my uniform.
Debtor.
Nikky. I know.
He has that to catch the helicopter. He is.
I have that to come back.
Perhaps we could have a rest together. Perhaps in Honolulu.
It does not try me, could be forever.
This is a promise? It knows my opinion on promises.
Well, it considers it seriously. Certain?
It forgives Lieutenant.
I left suck-san with the doctor, and our transport in the wait.
It is well, well.
Good it is contented to have seen it of new, Lieutenant.
e to share its thought in military subjects.
There obliged Lieutenant, does not make nothing that does not have.
I promise.
Sir alone wanted that he knew how much I am thankful to it…
He forgets, Percell. He is well?
But… Sir? He wants to be thankful to me?
He makes me a favor when coming back?
Clearly, what he is?
He does not leave they kill that me.
At least even after my next license.
